True Story Photography: August 2012

“You are, and always have been, my dream.”
― Nicholas Sparks

We were really honored to be chosen to document Leslie and Frank's special day.

It was a beautiful event that took place right here in our home base of Medford, NJ on a rainy Friday afternoon in late July. But no amount of bad weather could dampen the spirits of this special couple and their closest loved ones. Though it was a small gathering, it was beautiful in its simplicity and in the heartfelt touches that brilliantly showcased how much this bride and groom not only love one another but are truly committed to one another. From classy, world-class musicians providing the music to the vows that were written and not only included the bride and groom but also the groom's children, who were an important part of the ceremony, this was one special event.

We had some great ideas that included some dramatic photos shot outdoors on the street near the ceremony and reception venue but unfortunately, Mother Nature had other plans. Instead we worked within the confines of a 200+ year old inn and used our creative brains to come up with new and fresh ideas, True Story-style. The bride specifically mentioned that she wanted some traditional pictures but also that she loved unusual creative shots as well so we were happy to put our heads together and deliver. This is just a tiny little peek...

Congratulations, Leslie and Frank--we wish you a long and happy life together!

to love and be loved. - George Sand
